Crisp, clear photos and HD Movies

As you’d expect from our newest digital camera, you’ll enjoy incredibly lifelike 10.1 effective megapixel still image, bursting with detail and vibrant colours.

But that’s just the start. The T500 is the first ever Cyber-shot™ that captures crisp, clear HD movie clips with stereo sound. New HD Snap Movie mode stores up to 60 mins (approx) of video on the supplied 4GB Memory Stick™ (video recording 1280x720 pixels at 30fps).

There’s no need to fiddle with complicated menus and settings: switch instantly between still and movie modes at the touch of a button on top of the camera. You can even grab crisp still images (1280x720 pixels) without interrupting video shooting.

See things more clearly, from shooting to viewing

The superb Carl Zeiss lens features a new ring-type Zoom button for easy fingertip adjustment throughout the generous 5x zoom range while you’re shooting.

Detail-packed stills and video clips can be viewed on the extra-large wide 3.5-inch Clear Photo Plus LCD. The, big beautiful touchscreen makes operation of camera functions beautifully simple: just touch anywhere on the screen while you’re composing a shot to lock focus on that part of the scene.

Touching a face on the LCD turns on Face Detection, ensuring that people’s faces are in sharp focus and with perfect exposure for fewer spoiled shots. Up to eight faces can be tracked at a time, making the T500 ideal for capturing large groups of friends and family.

Shooting handheld without flash can mean blurred pictures, especially when light levels are low or with telephoto shots. Optical SteadyShot is teamed with an improved High Sensitivity mode for clean, natural images, even in low-light conditions like parties or twilight.

Even more enjoyment of your favourite photos and clips

After you’ve finished shooting, HD Slide Shows add an extra dimension of enjoyment to your collection of photos and videos. Pick from a choice of musical accompaniments, or import your favourite music track from a connected PC.

If you want an even bigger picture, experience still images and HD movie clips with extra impact on your HD Ready television. Connected to your Sony HD TV, BRAVIA™ Sync lets you control Cyber-shot™ playback functions using the TV’s remote control.

Easy web upload to blogs and sharing sites

The T500 comes supplied with Picture Motion Browser software to view, browse and manage all those photos and movie clips on your computer.

Videos are displayed as a series of ‘thumbnail’ images, making it easy to track down and play the exact moment you’re looking for at the click of a mouse.

Want to share those special moments? Picture Motion Browser also makes it simple to upload favourite pictures and clips to blogs and image sharing sites on the web. It’s a great way to let everyone see what you’ve been up to with the amazing T500.
